Producing Maps and Town Guides since 1986

Established in Chipping Sodbury, Bristol in 1986, Standbrook Guides set out to produce the most useful information handbook for all residents in well defined communities.

The Residents' HANDBOOK is printed and distributed free to residents from our head office in Yate, and includes the best local street map for each town. We take particular pride in the regular updates and accuracy of our maps, which are also available through this web site.

Reaching out to Local People

Standbrook Guides publish each Residents' HANDBOOK annually, providing a wealth of local information and listing businesses and services in 139 towns across a large area of England and South Wales.

It has proved an excellent medium in supporting local communities, bringing customers and businesses together and allowing local organisations to reach out to local people.

Add a Listing

If there is any local information you think we have missed from your local area, or if you would like to advertise in the Residents' HANDBOOK, please call us on 01454-315774 or send us an e-mail from our contact page.
